I had a few players missing today = Luke Fewtrell, Marcus Watson, Aaron Carter, Josh Knight, Shaun Tullett 5 from my normal line up. But I must say the lads that came in to cover their jobs done me proud today, Paul Wade who played his part in goal and was not at fault for any of their goals, Kieron Fuller back from Uni for the weekend worked hard at right back and made some important tackles when needed to, Jordan Eaton back up front to partner Rafa so on paper It still looked quite good. AFC Hayes started the brighter of the two sides, they kept possession and pegged us back for the first 15 minutes, although they were limited to long range efforts from outside our box. But my lads continued to battle and started to get the upper hand briefly threatening their goal when we managed to get to play football in their half. We did manage to take the lead 20 minutes in to the game from a corner, Rafa took it their keeper came for the cross it hit his hands and looped in to the net 1 -0 the half continued to be a battle and Hayes started to come back at us making thing hard for us at times and by the 37th minute had pulled one back 1 - 1 again my lads picked the tempo up and started to play some very good football on both sides of the pitch some good work down the right hand wing from Kieron and Josh who managed to get the ball to Tom Slane who hit his shot with the outside of his right boot to curl it in to the bottom left hand corner of the goal from just outside of the 18 yard box great effort 2 - 1 .

2nd half  This half was a much more of an even affair with us having more joy playing with the wind helping us keep possession and create more chances, the wide players came in to the game giving better support to the front two who were working very hard for the team but as normal we were pushing for another goal they hit us on the break and got their 2nd 2 -2 some how my young lads upped the tempo once again and took the game to Hayes pushing for that 3rd goal we managed to get a corner again their keeper missed the cross and Lloyd Jones headed in for our 3rd goal 3 - 2 this gave us the lift we needed and the lads could see another goal in this game for them but we were running out of time but on the 47th minute their keeper pushed Tom to the floor and the Ref gave us a penalty Rafa put in the net 4 -2 game over. A good days work lads well done my Man of the match Tom Slane.
